Can anyone recommend a good leather holster for a 5.5" Mark IV Target? I have one and I'm in need of a good rig. Any input is appreciated.

For quality you would have to look far, wide & hard to beat a holster by Barranti Leather. if their pricing is a bit more than your budget,, then into Simply Rugged.

I had an excellent one made by the folks at El Paso Saddlery for my MKII
5.5" Target which should also do great on the MKIV.

Mine is in the russet color, to me it looks better than the black that shows
every minor ding to disadvantage.

I have NO idea why the Ruger drop down model list doesn't include one
for a 5.5" Target auto but I got one somehow, lined and fits like the proverbial
glove.

In all fairness, Barranti does EXCELLENT work as well and I am hoping to
resume a dialogue with them on making me a custom shoulder holster for
a Ruger Slabside 6 7/8" model with a 2x Burris on it, we were right in the
midst of final details when I got rather sick suddenly so that I couldn't
get online to let him know; hopefully he has either forgotten about that
or forgiven me.

The COW holster co has a nice holster for the 6 7/8", w/ or withot scope. Check w/ em about one for your barrel length. Price was about$63 as I recall, 4 yrs ago.
